# std::chrono::file_clock::to_utc, std::chrono::file_clock::from_utc

< cpp‎ | chrono‎ | file clock

template< class Duration > static std::chrono::utc_time</* see below */> to_utc( const std::chrono::file_time<Duration>& t ); | (1) | (since C++20) (optional*)
template< class Duration > static std::chrono::file_time</* see below */> from_utc( const std::chrono::utc_time<Duration>& t ); | (2) | (since C++20) (optional*)

1) Converts the `file_time` t to a `utc_time` representing the same point in time.
2) Converts the `utc_time` t to a `file_time` representing the same point in time.

The duration of the return type is computed from `Duration` in an unspecified manner.

These function templates are optional: an implementation may choose to instead provide `to_sys()` and `from_sys()`.

### Return value

1) A `utc_time` representing the same point in time as the argument.
2) A `file_time` representing the same point in time as the argument.

### Notes

User code should usually use std::chrono::clock_cast, which provides a generic interface to convert time points between clocks, rather than call these functions directly.

### Example
